Spanish ranking gone

Spanish research agency  Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas has cancelled its ranking web of repositories. The CSIC used web presence to list universities. It also published lists of scholars by research output, such as April’s H-index list which used Google scholar scores. Critics complain web-presence is no accurate guide to impact. Supporters suggest that it is better than surveys of status. But it seems the argument is over. As to why, the SCIC is not explaining.
